Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomCar park could do with being marked out, some cars were taking up the space of 1 1/2 cars, we had to drive around and around before finding a space.

United KingdomI had 2 queen/small double beds pushed together in the room however both had tired mattresses and both had a rather large dip in the centre and were quite lumpy. It felt clean enough, but getting a little tired in places.
Location was great for where I needed to be, views at breakfast were nice too, overlooking the lake. Staff were very attentive and polite, couldn’t fault them in the slightest.

United Kingdom2 hour pool slot pre-booked, but no loungers available when we arrived as promised. All had towels on, even though it appeared that they were not being used. We had to wait a hour to get loungers after another couple left, taking their towels with them. People appeared to overstay the allotted 2 hour slot and no sign of staff to clear the loungers for others to use.
Polite friendly staff. Clean tidy room. Well stocked room refreshments. Excellent evening meal in the Lakes restaurant, Maitre D was very professional and polite.

United KingdomShame that there was condensation in one of the window panels in our room. But that's me being picky to find something to criticise.
The room decoration is lovely. Beds are comfortable. Great views across the golf course. There's a safe and a kettle with an assortment of drink options. Feed in the bars/restaurants is really good and well priced. Orchard bar is a lovely space to relax. You can go for walks around the golf course. Clean rooms. Large fluffy towels. Lovely smelling toileteries.Second time we've been and we will return. We were able to check-in an hour early.

United KingdomOnly problem. The Sat Nav postcode takes you through a very winding single track road if there’s a better access way would prefer this. If it’s can be accessed via a wider better road surface with a different post code please amend website.
The quiet relaxing well kept hotel. Much needed as pregnant and wanted a spa leisure weekend to chill with hubby. Food was lovely restaurant with breakfast and evening meal and bar for chill ore drink before our meal. Special Spa day treatments for pregnancy and it included a light lunch with spa access. Had an overnight stay on a lovely golf room with all facilities. Superb with breakfast included before leaving.

United Kingdom- As a few other reviews have mentioned, the room was unbearably hot at night. We used the fan provided, but even in April, found it impossible to sleep due to the heat
- Beautiful grounds - Ample free parking (but a warning, don't make the mistake I did by parking under the trees on the left, I came back to a 'painted' car courtesy of the birds....) - Spotlessly clean in the corridors, rooms and pool area - Very large room - Comfortable beds - Water provided in the room - Pleasant views from the room out over the golf course - Friendly and approachable staff - Well-kept pool, sauna, jacuzzi and steam room - Tasty breakfast with adequate options and a great view to eat with - Excellent value for money all-round

United KingdomThe walls were paper thin. We could literally hear word for word the guy in the next room. He was chatting all night long! No milk to go with the tea and coffee in the room - first world problem I know but still it would have been nice to have it.
All the staff we came across were so attentive. Grounds were beautiful, very peaceful.
